COULTER, Samuel & HAMILTON, Mary

[Canadian1982]

I'm having a difficult time finding any information on the above mentioned who were married and had their children in Glasgow.  We have my grandfathers Birth Certificate that states these two names but we've hit a brick wall after that.

The only thing we know is Mary Coulter (nee Hamilton) had a sweet shop. 

If anyone has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Can we have a time frame please - when was your grandfather born

[Canadian1982]

The only other information I have is they were the parents of my grandfather and he was born in 1899. 

And rumour has it this was Samuel Coulters second marriage.  But we have no information about the first wife.

Thank You!

Can we have your grandfathers name

[CaroleW]

Scotlands People is showing one match for a marriage between a Samuel Coulter and a Mary Hamilton between 1891-1900

Have you checked it?   www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

Thanks!  I'll check that out...

Quite new to this so don't really have a starting off point!  Thanks for your help

What was your grandfathers name as I can try and find them on the 1901 census?  Was he born in Glasgow?

[Canadian1982]

He was born in Glasgow, William John Coulter, but he was apparently shipped to Co. Armagh to live with family when he was a young child.  I've found him on a census of N. Ireland in 1911.

He's not on the Scottish 1901 so was possibly in transit to Ireland as I can't find him on the Irish 1901 with Samuel & Mary
